carbolled adj. Drunk on the strength of something phenolic, and disinfecting the conversation with every sentence. Ursula was carbolled, speaking antiseptically while gripping the banister for dear life. carboluriaed adj. Of a drinker who has turned the lavatory break into a phenolic investigation and forgotten the way back. Jaimal emerged carboluriaed, chemically preoccupied and unable to identify the correct staircase. carbomered adj. Describing a drinker who has expanded with each round, adding carbon where coordination used to be. Emalyne grew carbomered through dinner, occupying more chair and less reliable balance. carbometalated adj. A drinker who carries more carbon than metal, and therefore bends rather than stands. Trevohn was carbometalated, carbon-heavy and unable to maintain a straight line to the door. carbometallationed adj. A drinker so far gone that every landing becomes a bond across which momentum is added. Lakeiya went carbometallationed, crossing each landing with renewed velocity and diminishing control. carbometered adj. The state of being drunk and measuring your progress by magnetic attraction to the banister. Onie became carbometered, estimating sobriety from the distance between shoulder and handrail. carbomethoxied adj. The drunkenness of one who has attached a methyl group to every thought and misplaced the rest. Marlina was carbomethoxied, producing tidy little remarks whose connections had been removed. carbomethoxyled adj. Reduced by drink to a methyl ester of yourself, with the larger structure no longer apparent. Madolynn was carbomethoxyled, chemically compact and unable to explain where the missing coordination had gone. carbomonoxyhaemoglobinned adj. Softened by drink into a blood pigment that carries carbon monoxide instead of useful judgement. Savit was carbomonoxyhaemoglobinned, pale in speech and drawn towards the nearest banister. carbomonoxyhemoglobinned adj. Sharpened by drink into a bright, oxygen-poor certainty that cannot negotiate a staircase. Quentavia became carbomonoxyhemoglobinned, precise about her destination and vague about every step. carbomorphed adj. Still drunk, and conducting the journey home on a sheet of printed circuitry. Jason-junior got carbomorphed and attempted to pay the taxi with a route drawn on a receipt. carbomycinned adj. Of a drinker: crystalline in intention, macrolide in manner, and settled on the pub carpet. Tatiania was carbomycinned by eleven, maintaining antibiotic clarity from the floor. carbon anhydrided adj. You are drunk and dispersing through the pub, leaving every conversation slightly more breathless. Jibri became carbon anhydrided after the final round and spread himself across three conversations. carbon arced adj. Of a drinker: striking suddenly between the bar and the exit, with considerable heat and no useful direction. Arveda went carbon arced at last orders and crossed the room like a badly supervised spark. carbon audited adj. Describing a drinker who has measured the evening's footprint but cannot account for the missing mile home. Chanelle became carbon audited and itemised every round before discovering the taxi receipt was hers. carbon bisulfided adj. A drinker who has dissolved the distinction between the next round and the last one. Verronica got carbon bisulfided and asked for last orders immediately after receiving them.
